I really like the markings on your yorkie! He looks handsome.

You DO Have the best of both worlds. I LOVE Maltese too but I don't have one. I have a Yorkie, Daisy and a Yorkie Bichon mix, Teddy Bear. They are both great babies too.

Little Princess Mia is a real cutie!

I hope I don't offend anyone here but from what I've seen over the past 5-6 months, most of the threads here are based on popularity (who submits the thread) rather than helping other yorkie owners. Again, I don't want to be rude or offend anyone. I have noticed that people post threads and gets no attention and people that have been here for a while or those that sell doggy clothes get a lot of response to their posts. Why is that? Isn't this a community where all yorkie owners come for help?

Welcome Trinnie! I lurked for several months as well before joining in.

As far as your "popularity" comment, I've never noticed such a thing. Maybe I'll pay attention to it now, but I never really have paid attention to who started a thread, I just respond to the topics that I feel I can contribute to. I never experienced this when I was a newbie, I felt an overwhelming sense of welcome and support. I'd be interested to hear if any other newbies feel the way you do, because I assure you, if there are any, there aren't a lot.

Hello and welcome to the YT community. I'm sure you will see a different picture of everyone after your here awhile. Anyway, I'm glad you could join us. You will find when you need advice that everyone jumps right in to help.

Welcome, Trinnie. Your baby is VERY cute!

Believe me, YT is NOT a popularity contest. If it were, I'd never get any responses.

I've only been here a few months and have been amazed by the kindness, generosity and depth of wisdom to be found on this site. And I continue to be almost every day.

Think of it as a crowded party. If you're like me, you walk in and immediately start looking for people you know. If you don't know anyone, you start eavesdropping on conversations to hone in on one that interests you. Or, you try to see if there are any nice-looking guys that you might WANT to meet. But none of that happens if you just stand quietly against the wall

But I digress ...YT is a lot like that. You get to "eavesdrop" from the posts and as you start talking to people and they get to know you, you get more and more responses. So, get out there and mingle, girl!
